Courtesy in Business.

"The Courtes;es of small and trivial
character are the ones which strike
deepest to the graceful and appreciat-
ing heart. 1t is the picayune compli-
ments which are most appreciated; far
more than the double ones which we
sometimes pay"
SO said Henry Clay of mankind, and
there are few successful business men,
in this or any other city, who have not
won the goal of success throught prac-
tical application of this rule, either
knowingly or unconsciously.
1t is an unquestionable fact that man
ners form far more the stock in trade
of the cloak manufacturer than the
handsomest TaDrfcs, or most modern
styles they may possess. Compulsory
patronage is of necessity unknown in a
metropolis which furnishes, as does
New York City, to the benefit of buy
ers, competition which makes or loses
on the splitting of fraction of one per
cent. When the balancing of such
trivial sums sway favor at panic point,
all collateral interests being even, the
house that would court success for
other ends than simple glory must in
deed bring methods to bear which shall
weigh more in the scale of human in
terest than the few paltry dollars which
would otherwise gain or lose Gus
toner.
There is not house to day engaged
In the manufacture and sale of this
most holly contested line of goods that
might not privately confess in all truth
TT is not what we sell but how we
sell it." 1t matters little to a retailer
whether he buys his stock of Smith or
Brown when both make up equally
handsome lines of what he wants and
both are equally willing to split the
odd cent for the privilege of q sale.
1t is an unknown quantity that decides,
some one innate trait of courtesy or
wholesomeness in either nature which
gains the day. "A favor may be con-
ferred so grudgingly as to prevent any
feeling of obligation, or it may be re-
fused so courteously as to awaken more
kindly feelings than if it had been I'M
graciously granted. Cloak, Suit, and

The Dimcuity OF Roofing Up Frejudicos
Learned at the Mothers Knee.
One bright June morning, some years ago,
q party OF travelling men were gazing out upon
one OF the most charming landscapes In the
snsquehanna Valley.
In the party was an English gentleman,
whose prejudices we're stirred by the Mandatory
tone OF the conversation He grew restless,
and exclaimed;
@This may seem TO you rawther a pretty
scene, but II you want 70 sec really beautiful
scenery, you must 60 TO England, where the air
is softer, tho grass groener, and the flowers
more fragrant than here"
AS he finished, one OF tho party, whose an
ccstors were OF good old revolutionary Yankee
stock, turned TO him, and with more candor
than politeness, said:
my friend, IN childhood, at my mothers
knee, was taught thrse things: FIrs to re-
stars AID stripes; and, third, TO hate Brit
isher This Is one of the many occasions when

Among the obstacles that obstruct mans
upward progress in this world are the preju-
dces which, planted in the charac ter-forming
period OF early youth, he fin ls-have become
firmly fixed in his maturer nature.

An Ahla Protector.

II there is moro able protector against the
incursions OF disease than Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, we have yet to learn of 1t. Against the
periodic attacks of fever and ague it affords a
sure defense, it renews waning vitality, and
counteracts the infirmities OF age it prevents
dyspepsia from becoming chronic, and eventu-
ally annihilates it. 1t rouses the liver and kid
neys when dormant, and insures regular
habit of body To the nervous it is Of inesti-
mable benefit, imparting steadiness and vigor
into an enfeebled physique. The term, deli
cato health, is usually another name for de-
bility. While the Bitters is procurable, the weak
need never despair OF physical reinforcement.
Persons whose avocations are scdentary and
laborious, or involve exposure to unfavorable

CAN'T GO BEHIND THEM.

There Is. great intensity Of the physical
condition sometimes, and there are facts
which we cannot go behind. In illustra-
ton further of facts which settle the points
of prompt and permanent cure, the fol-
lowing cases are cited: In 1884 Mrs. Mary
X. Sheed suffered terribly with chronic
neuralgia. She writes from lilo Maryland

stance she states II suffered terribly with
neuralgia in the face; very severe attack
extending TO back and shoulders suffered

well rubbed at night; in the morning all
pain gone, magically." June 10, 1887, she
writes from 224 Eleventh Street, ). W., as
follows: -Four years ago sent you vol
untary certificate setting forth the fact that

my face neck and shoulders i obtained a
bottle of st. Jacobs Oil, and after three ap-.
plications i was entirely relieved from all

Oil was permanent. There has been no re-
currence of the painful afflction." Cllas.
w. Law, Jr., Pottstown, Pa, April 10, 1887,
writes: 'Was troubled for years with ncu-
ralgia in neck and head. Tried ST. Jacobs
